Most of Austria’s ski areas are in their final days and weeks of their 2017-18 ski season and it’s looking like a snowy end to the season after a largely snowy winter.
The past week leading up to the Easter weekend saw increasingly heavy snowfall across most Austrian ski slopes.
Bad Gastein and Obergurgl both got around a foot (30cm) of snow over Easter weekend and it was snowier still at Nassfeld. That was after 20cm snowfalls earlier last week at resorts including Galtur and Heilgenblut.
Of course not all Austrian ski areas will be closing over the next few weekends. Most of the country’s 8 glacier ski areas will stay open to May, June or even later in the year and several other ski areas like Ischgl are open in to May.
